## Summary
When Podman/Docker is available, all stdio-mode MCP servers now automatically
run inside Box containers with dependency installation, path rewriting, and
lifecycle management. When no container runtime exists, LangBot starts normally
and stdio MCP falls back to host-direct execution.
## What changed
### MCP stdio → Box integration (mcp.py)
- Add `MCPServerBoxConfig` pydantic model for structured box configuration
with validation and defaults (network, host_path_mode, timeouts, resources)
- Auto-infer `host_path` from command/args with venv detection: recognizes
`.venv/bin/python` patterns and walks up to the project root
- Rewrite host paths to container `/workspace` paths transparently
- Replace venv python commands with container-native `python`
- Auto-detect `pyproject.toml`/`setup.py`/`requirements.txt` and run
`pip install` inside the container before starting the MCP server
- Copy project to `/tmp` before install to handle read-only mounts
- Add retry with exponential backoff (3 retries, 2s/4s/8s delays)
- Add Box managed process health monitoring (poll every 5s)
- Fix session leak: `_cleanup_box_stdio_session()` now runs in `finally`
block of `_lifecycle_loop`, covering all exit paths
- Fix retry logic: `_ready_event` is only set after all retries exhaust
or on success, not on first failure
- Enhance `get_runtime_info_dict()` with `box_session_id` and `box_enabled`
### Box security (security.py — new)
- `validate_sandbox_security()` blocks dangerous host paths:
`/etc`, `/proc`, `/sys`, `/dev`, `/root`, `/boot`, `/run`,
docker.sock, podman socket
- Called at the start of `CLISandboxBackend.start_session()`
### Box models (models.py)
- Add `BoxHostMountMode.NONE` — skips volume mount entirely
- Adjust `validate_host_mount_consistency` to allow arbitrary workdir
when `host_path_mode=NONE`
### Box backend (backend.py)
- Add `validate_sandbox_security()` call in `start_session()`
- Add `langbot.box.config_hash` label on containers for drift detection
- Handle `BoxHostMountMode.NONE` — skip `-v` mount arg
- Add `cleanup_orphaned_containers()` to base class (no-op default) and
CLI implementation (single batched `rm -f` command)
### Box runtime (runtime.py)
- Call `cleanup_orphaned_containers()` during `initialize()` to remove
lingering containers from previous runs
### Box service (service.py)
- Graceful degradation: `initialize()` catches runtime errors and sets
`available=False` instead of crashing LangBot startup
- Add `available` property and guard on `execute_sandbox_tool()`
- Add `skip_host_mount_validation` parameter to `build_spec()` and
`create_session()` — MCP paths are admin-configured and trusted,
bypassing `allowed_host_mount_roots` restrictions meant for
LLM-generated sandbox_exec commands
### Default behavior
- stdio MCP servers automatically use Box when `box_service.available`
is True (Podman/Docker detected); no explicit `box` config needed
- When no container runtime exists, falls back to host-direct stdio
- MCP Box defaults: `network=on` (for pip install), `read_only_rootfs=false`
(for site-packages), `host_path_mode=ro`, `startup_timeout=120s`
### Tests
- `test_box_security.py`: blocked paths, safe paths, subpath rejection
- `test_mcp_box_integration.py`: config model, path rewriting, venv
unwrap, host_path inference, payload building, runtime info, box
availability check
- `test_box_service.py`: `BoxHostMountMode.NONE` validation tests
